  • Set up what you want on what you already have and if your workload is more than your hardware can handle then upgrade.

    Overall most of what you rattled off isn’t too resource heavy but 12gb of memory isnt exactly a lot and i dont know what your minecraft server will eat up.

    Alternatively look up the recommended minimum specs for each of your desired applications and add up the needs.

    Additionally if this isnt going to be a headless system and you want a desktop gui that consumes resources as well.





  • They do not work well in already humid environments but in a hot and dry climate they do quite well. It absolutely does add to the humidity (obviously) but speaking from experience I’d rather have a evap cooler than not if my AC is out.

    The largest difference in utilizing one over AC is that they rely on airflow so you need to actually ventilate the area you are cooling as compared to AC where you want a sealed space.

    The main driver is power efficiency. Only thing they are doing is running a small water pump and a big fan.
